I ventured out to the quarry with two OW students, one provided by Tim and
one by Craig II.  The air temp was 42 so getting into the 58 degree water
was very nice.  The thermocline is at about 36 feet.  The visibility was
just beyond 25 feet, a surprise given the temps and rain.  It rained all day
at the quarry, and it was chilly.  Both students were succesful.
Brian is very slow descending and so is Sam.   Brian due to ears, Sam due to
confidence or lack of.  Brian uses a lot of air, Sam doesn't.  Both are fair
at bouancy.   Both were suprised by the fish, several showed up.

NOTE:  The middle platform on beach two side of the quarry has been
elevated.  It now sits at a depth of 15 feet.  Don't know why.  Beach one
only has 2 platforms, the third platform has sailed into the marsh.
